[***SPAM***] Invoice Example
I copied the three files required for the invoice example on the wiki garden. invoice.tex, invoicefunctions.tex, adn invoicesetup.tex $ context invoice.tex The above compiles without error, but the resulting pdf doesn't give me what I would expect. There is a " Regression in latest release of iT E X " In the main body of the document, which I don't think should be there. My setup: mtx-context | current version: 2013.09.03 16:23 Is the source out of date with the context version I am using or am I missing something? Thanks

I’m responsible for that sample, but am sick and can’t concentrate at the moment. I’ll try to come back to you. Greetlings, Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)

Hi anonymous, I finally came to checking that code - it was still written for an old version of Wolfgang’s letter module. Now it’s updated to work with the latest. Feel free to fix remaining errors yourself. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Invoice To adapt it for your own purposes you’ll need to learn to use the letter module (or bug Wolfgang to help you ;-) Greetlings, Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
